Mar. 16th, 2007 02:11 pmEver have one of those weeks when you're just stymied at every turn? When, if you were a rat in a maze, there'd be big walls being thunked down in front of you every five minutes?
And it's not as though I'm trying to do difficult things. I want to buy a sufficient number of bags of lawn-patch, and I want enough time to get them onto the lawn without getting rained on. I want (well, maybe want is the wrong verb here) to buy plane tickets to visit the spouse's parents, and I don't want either leg of the journey to start at 6 a.m. or at 11 p.m., nor do I want to have the trip home routed through L.A., Denver, and Chicago. I want my father to actually receive the magazine subscription I bought him on eBay, or else I want to buy him another one to replace it. I want to get my allergy shot, and I want my new insurance to pay for it. I want to be at the McJob at the same time as Check-Writing Woman so I can get a check for the piddling number of hours I've worked since February. I want to get into the bank website and transfer some money from one account to another. I want the router to arrive so the spouse can start using his new computer. And it's just: Thunk! Thunk! Thunk! Exit sealed!
(I write entries like this all the time and never post them. I'm putting this one up chiefly because I want to see whether or not LJ will prevent me from posting it.)
(Also: new icon makes many things all right.)
